Belichick used his 2007 draft picks to trade for Moss, Welker and a 2008 first. The 2008 first ended up being Mayo and Crable.
If the 2007 draft killed us, we need to be killed like that more often.

The '06 draft was worse, when you factor in the trades made in 2007. I mentioned a few months back that it was probably the 2006 and 2007 drafts that hurt the Pats in 2008 the most.
2006 was indeed worse. However, we did get a probowler, a starter, and four role players. I think we get very spoiled. In the end, if 2006 is a lousy draft, it is because of injuries to the 1,2,3,4a and 5.
